Summary:
The Oppenheim-Ephratah-St. Johnsville Central School District in New York serves students from elementary through high school. The district has two schools: Oppenheim-Ephratah-St Johnsville Elementary School and Oppenheim-Ephratah-St Johnsville Junior/Senior High School.
The high school stands out with a higher statewide ranking and stronger performance on Regents exams, with over 70% proficiency in subjects like Chemistry, Algebra II, and Global History and Geography. The school also has a 84.3% four-year graduation rate, which is above the district and state averages. In contrast, the elementary school has lower proficiency rates on state assessments, particularly in English Language Arts, and a high percentage of students (54.22%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher level of economic disadvantage.
While the high school performs relatively well, the data suggests a significant disparity in academic performance between the elementary and high school within the district. This may be due to factors such as socioeconomic challenges and chronic absenteeism, which are higher at the high school level. To address these issues, the district could benefit from targeted interventions and support to improve academic outcomes, particularly at the elementary school level.
